I have to say, the dessert was the star of the evening... Nigella Lawson's bread and butter pudding. I have made this dessert many times before and Hubby absolutely loves it.

I got the recipe from her Nigella Bites cookbook, however the original recipe used ginger jam. I used raspberry instead. I love the idea of spreading jam on the triangles of bread as well as the butter. It gives it an extra dimension. The sprinkle of demerara sugar on the top gave it a sweet crispiness.

It was served with either custard or ice cream though it can easily stand on it's own.
